Toolbox Brewing Co. - Vista, CA

I know right....weird.

 

I buy bottles so every six months my old lady can threaten to break them all because I pay attention more to beer than her.

 

Haole Honey bottles have been available for quite some time now at their tasting room. At least every single time I've gone there since they released it including my last visit this past weekend. So you should be able to score that at least I would imagine.

 

More Toolbox beer is coming!!! Yay!!!

 

No more Handful of Peter bottles; there's only Haole Honey bottles left. Growler fills of Grass Fed Lettuce, Mini Mudder, and Sweet Baby Trey.

 

Anyone try that new batch of GFL? How is it?

 

I had some this past weekend and thought it was pretty good. Supposedly at least one new release is coming out in the next week or two from the new head brewer. They will continue to focus on the same kind of beers and will not go back to IPA's and stouts.

 

Finally back on and for 32oz growler fills too. Yay!

 

anyone know anything about autumn blossom being bottled?

 

Autumn Blossom was pulled from release. New beer releases and information coming soon.

 

Any thoughts on BBA Chocolate Imperial Milk Stout release? Anyone had it?

 

I remember their stouts being pretty solid when they first opened.

 

Did they use someone elses system to bottle this stout?

 

Had this previously not sure if it would be the same. But remember it being really good

 

Any news when Planet of the APricots and DOwn in The Plums will release if its still planned? Grabbed some of the BBA Milk Stout today

 

Never.

 

Yeah, I remember they put a hold on those releases back in what? August? Never heard anything about those again, but I do remember they were doing some secondary testing on them so maybe they got some bad results and scrapped everything. Still, I would have liked to try either of those beers had they come to fruition.

 

Based on the tone of the posts concerning that beer, I got the impression that it ended up in the Escondido treatment plant. I also get the impression that may have had a lot to do with the brewer change drama, but I'm sure Amana will correct me.
